my books. my life.

Happy New Year, readers. I said I would be back in the new year and here I am.

So where have I been?

Well, as most of you probably know from Twitter and Instagram, I have been off growing a baby. I’m 14 weeks pregnant and expecting another baby boy in late June. That was the main reason for the break from blogging. It’s hard to prioritize blogging when just making it through a day without puking is considered a success.

Here was our official internet announcement:

I didn’t want to leave the blog out of the rounds but I wanted to respect the break I had taken. (Now I am on a Facebook break so you guys will know more than my IRL friends soon).

What have I been reading?

Nothing. Literally nothing. Since October, I have listened to one audiobook and read zero print books. Early pregnancy and reading really don’t mix well for me. Reading makes me nauseated, just like every other activity that is not sleeping. I fought through it with Evan. This time, I just gave up.

So what have I been doing?

Not much. Working and parenting, of course. They don’t go away when you get pregnant. Other than that, I’ve been watching a whole bunch of Gilmore Girls. I swear it has nausea-fighting properties.

What are my plans for my books. my life.?

That is an excellent question. I’ll let you know when I figure it out. If I ever figure it out.I still may do a 2014 wrap up of some sorts, even though I don’t feel like there is a lot to wrap up. For now, consider me back to sporadically telling you what I think about things.

For now, I’ll leave you with photos from our Toddler New Year’s Eve Bash. 

I am pretty sure no one can beat me in cute on this one.
